Who Qualifies for Facial Injections?

Essentially, anyone who wants to add volume to their face or fill in laugh lines and wrinkles is a good candidate for facial injections. Facial injections, or facial fillers, come in several different varieties. Some are designed to restore lost volume to various regions of the face where it may be lacking. Others are designed to be injected into localized areas and get rid of lines and creases. At Smith Facial Plastics in Gahanna, we are proud to offer a wide array of options for patients seeking to enhance their aesthetics.

What Kinds of Fillers Can You Get?

There are a number facial injections that one can get to boost volume in key areas of the face. Some of the most popular kinds are hyaluronic acid fillers, which include Restylane® and Juvederm®. These fillers are made primarily of hyaluronic acid, a substance made naturally by the human body. Over time, hyaluronic acid production slows down, which is when you may start to notice that your facial skin looks less than radiant. Hyaluronic acid fillers restore hyaluronic acid to more normal levels.

Another facial injection option is a filler such as Radiesse®. This particular product can last from one to two years and is comprised of gel-suspended calcium hydroxylapatite. This type of facial injection is often recommended for people who have previously had more temporary fillers and know they like the look. Radiesse® is thicker and firmer than hyaluronic acid fillers, which means that they are also a good choice for filling in wrinkles.
